I think it would be useful to change the color of the record (row) based on either status column updates or checkboxes.

2 examples would be:

1- Weekly To-Do List
I don’t want to move this record to complete until the end of the week or next week but it would be nice to darken the row to let me know when each task is finished.

2- Status Updates
My team has 5 status columns that work independently of each other depending on what the project needs. It would be nice to highlight or darken rows to let them know where they are in the process since the status columns are farther to the right and require scrolling.
